We are getting close to the brisky, frisky, downright spooky time of year and there’s something
brewing — we’re talking about Westerville Ohio activities.

Speaking of brewing, whether you’re ready to get
creeped out by some great horror films or relaxing with some weaving, be sure to stop by
and see us at Cardinal Pizza Shop for some great food and great beer.

Here are some fun Westerville Ohio activities to get in on this month.

It’s getting close to that time of year for all things macabre. The folks at Gateway Film Center

insider talks and guides to filmmaking all in the (girl screams in background) darkest of
subjects.
A true destination horror and genre fest, Nightmares Film Festival (NFF) has been named
one of the world’s top horror film festivals by every major genre outlet. Christened the
“Cannes of Horror” by iHorror, NFF and Gateway Film Center are dedicated to elevating
horror, fostering an inclusive and supportive community of creators, and connecting those
artists with audiences.

In this very popular hilarious play, light is dark and dark is light. We watch the characters stumble
around in the ‘dark’ but the stage is fully lit. None of the characters are trustworthy. All in all, a fun,
fun evening.
